I Tried All of Shoshanna's Craziest Hairstyles From 'Girls'

There are two reasons I tune into Girls every Sunday. The first is the emotional gratification of having my erratic 20-something millennial lifestyle translated on television. The second is Shoshanna Shapiro, and her Pinterest-board-on-acid hairstyles. Forget Marnie's Kate Middleton worthy locks, Jessa's mermaid waves, and Hannah's post-breakdown pixie. It's all about side braids and high buns.So by virtue of being 22, ridiculous, and lacking in common dignity, I decided to channel everyone's favorite fast-talker and copy her hairstyles. Why not? We're both second semester seniors alternating nights of freedom with days of academic focus. And in any case, I wanted to see if these looks I marvel over week after week actually were realistic and easy to recreate. (Spoiler alert: no and not at all.)
And don't worry, I willingly put myself through this for the story. Truth be told I'm more of a Hannah with a Shoshanna in the rising.
